Well, that's one of the whole purposes of 538. Our pollster ratings track accuracy and improve pollster incentives to put out accurate numbers rather than just influencing the discourse. If Trafalgar et al have a bad night, that will lower their rating going forward. — PolitiTweet.org

New rule: you're not allowed to criticize any pollster or polling aggregator unless you pre-register your own forecast. Use this thread to predict the following: 1—% chance of R Senate win 2—% of R House win 3—# of R Senate seats 4—# of R House "" 5—GA-Sen result 6—AZ-Gov result — PolitiTweet.org
